@Wizz3322 It is always honourable in swordplay to let your opponet re-aquire their weapon after disarming them. Thats why you don't usually see it happen in movies: the fighters hate eachother so much they just want to kill them. Here, they admire each other and have no reason to hate one another, so they have reason to uphold their honor.
@Wizz3322 They also USUALLY go with the three strikes policy, which is why he only lets Inigo rearm himself after being disarmed twice. Not often, but sometimes.
Bob Anderson, sword master and old world gentleman, who choreographed this scene and taught the actors, has passed away. There are no stunt fighters, only for acrobatics. A great loss to the industry and art.
A fencer could whip any scotsmen into shape. Claymores had heavy impact but in a duel, a rapier's speed and the wielder's skill would prove more than a match. In the end, the historic fencer with the rapier wins against any katana wielding samurai, broadsword wielding knight, or claymore wielding scot highlander.
@PwnZoneification I said they'd probably win not easily would. I'm not saying any rapier holder would win. Only a master. Samurai were skilled but in truth, are overrated. They were trained to do quick draws and an elongated 1st move and little after that. Fencers could dodge, block, and parry at a fast rate. He would prolong the battle. This agility would eventually make him the victor but the samurai is most worthy in comparison to the other swordsmen.
@PwnZoneification I'm not saying that draws are all they are good for, but that is their training technique. Anyway, they are over glorified in films. Fencers would tire them out and beat them in the long run. But in any fight where you're picking people off and killing as quick as possible then perhaps the samurai wins there, but in a duel I'd place my money on the fencer any day. I'm not the only 1 either. Ask GoblinsnHobbits and Bamlatty, they seem to plead similarly to my case.
@wedgeantillies66 I love the duel from Rob Roy and the claymore was very powerful as shown but Cningham was the better swordsman. He deserved to die, but he beat Rob Roy in the duel. rob Roy was unarmed but grabbed the blade to win. If Cunningham had fought Rob Roy in any other playing field not on the battlefield, he'd have won. Thus, my point is made, rapier for the win.
@kingofladies04 You make some good points, however despite the movie duel I mentioned I think in reality you be able to find any reacords of fencing swords against claymores, so you could never really know how would win out unless you try it out with real weapons. Also I agree that on battlefield you want the claymore instead of a fencing sabre anyday.
@wedgeantillies66 claymores can pick people off and break through lines and charge and such. You are also right in that I have no historic proof of a rapier victory over claymore anyday but rapier was designed for single combat. Parry and thrust for hours was the intention. Claymores were supposed to finish in a single blow. Balance is important but so is weight. That is why I say in duels, rapier, in battle, claymore. My argument was toward duels and that is where I standby.

Actually the best sword ever is not the katana or the rapier. The Scottish claymore was scientifically proven to be the best sword. Why? I have no idea. If you find out, let me know.
@dansalvatori1974 even though the claymore was a massive sword if used right and with skill it could cut through any armour even the knights armour, the scots needed something that could beat the knights armour and a claymore works hell it was used as a anit-horse weapon too . only down side to it was the size which tired most average scots out fast so very few were actually used, most famous to use one was william wallas if im not mistaken
@OutlawSprocket people who study swordplay tend to agree that a western fencer would destroy a samurai, armor or no, as the rapier blade was designed to wear the opponent down, and the katana relies on one shot kills. The rapier user would be able to draw the samurai out into long, pitched combat in most cases, and in this arena, he is the clear victor.
Nice swordfight, but not a realistic one. Before any of you flame me, consider that they aim only at each other's swords and don't strike anywhere else or use feints. It's an entertaining scene but real fencers don't fight that way. By real fencing I mean the actual European martial arts, not Olympic fencing.
@dragondisaster You'll find not even olympic fencing would look like the above. i've done fencing and you are 100% correct, this isn't fencing it is simply stage fighting. It's put together to look cool and, let's face it, it works. A hell of a lot more entertaining than watching proper fencing. A lot of the time in fencing you need to work out what your opponent is likely to do AND what you are intending to do before the bout begins because it's so quick you cannot hope to just react.
Consider this though - neither has any reason to try to kill each other. They each want only to test each other's skill with the blade, and their knowledge of swordplay.
I imagine they simply want to enjoy themselves - and they earn each other's respect.
I love this movie...my dad studied stage sword combat like that and the style he used to teach me was alot like this...its cool to see it in full form
I have taught myself to play racquetball amidextrously in hopes that one day i will be playing left handed and set myself up to say "i am not left handed"
Rob Reiner said on the Kevin Pollak show that Cary Elwes and Mandy Patinkin did all of their own swordplay. Which I find amazing. Of course, they probably used stunt people for the flips and stuff, but you can see at 1:53 that Patinkin did that jump from the bar himself.
The fight was ok, except for the weird stuff at 2:20. I liked the preceding part where Inigo pulls up the man in black, gives him time to rest, and lets him handle his father's sword before starting the fight.
Were it not for the fact that they are opponents, these two would probably have been the best of friends. Worthy opponent - a very interesting concept played with in this movie, and one that made this duel, already excellent, a very dramatic scene.
You wanna troll each other? Both of you spell horribly "sword user" really? It's a rapier swordsman and for two it is PARRIES as well as "shove" not shuve" if you want to insult each other do it at the play date your parents make for you. Jesus Christ, if you're going to troll do it intelligently.
@RemusLupo Well, i admit i troll on occasion but its fun to do it intelligently and watch some moron try to insult you...its like someone trying to get Bill Cosby to hit them...it just won't work
Its like watching a zorro film i used to do fencing did it for 2 years and then i went on to do kendo and tai kwon do and did that fo 9 years i still do kendo now and then
"I admit, you are better than me." "Then why are you smiling?" "Because I know something you do not." "Oh? What is that?" "That I, am not left handed!" I literally lol'd.
@cantquitwontquit45 i think it should be done to the blood (first cut ends round) just cause having that armor stuff and fake sword = pussy but if you get cut = MANLY.
its the skill that fencers use, choping with the elbow estead of with the entire arm, using wrist movements rather then hands. Precise Perries, thrusts and stabs with alot of speed and reflex behind it, not strength. Its what makes a rapier sword user great!
This is the internet, you must be new here. Try this: spell check something before you write it. You accuse me of being juvenile and then fill your response with expletives AND more spelling errors? Good job fucktard. Go back to your room and pout.
Im not gonna get into some lame argument with a silly little troll. Now go pout on that. I dont give two shits about proper grammer, so shuve it up your cock sucking asshole..
Wow, you sure have a thing for taking it up the ass...and if you're into that then I guess good for you? But, nobody here asked about your sex life. You should probably keep that to yourself. And as for you not giving a shit about "grammar" (or spelling, or logic...) you've made that painfully clear. Me, a troll? Damn, you really are as stupid as your posts suggest...
@cantquitwontquit45 Fencing is a "pussy" sport only if you consider being covered in bruises (or giant welts if we're talking saber) to be for pussies.
@BEoredJordon62 No. According to the DVD commentary, the only time doubles were used was when they twirled around the bar towards the end. If you notice, Cary Elwes (the Man in Black) switches hands in the middle of fighting at the 2:41 mark.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this is lame.. they arent even trying to hit each other, they are just hiting each others swords.. i mean they swing there sword against the other persons blade... stupid!
This was the first movie sword fight I remember seeing as a kid. After I saw this I judged all other sword fights using this as a standard. Any sword fight I saw had to be just as good or better.
1. Yes, those are training swords, no, they are not rubber, yes, weapons of that type do bend fairly easily, but this is a GOOD thing for weapons of that type.
2. This is not real fencing. It is a send up of Hollywood swordplay; look up 'flynning' on TVtropes.org and you will understand. That said, small bits and pieces of it are quite good.
Fencing is usually over in about 10 seconds and there's not a lot of dance. This scene is a pastiche. The dialogue shows the creators knew quite well what fencing is and isn't and just made a pastiche of the most typical Holywood scenes.
@demeandr121 Those swords aren't rubber. Training swords for fencing are very flexible so when you lunge at your opponent its bends on contact and not go thru them.
I'm still waiting for Tim Tebow to say this after one of his miraculous comebacks...

This is the internet, you must be new here. Try this: spell check something before you write it. You accuse me of being juvenile and then fill your response with expletives AND more spelling errors? Good job fucktard. Go back to your room and pout.

Wow, you sure have a thing for taking it up the ass...and if you're into that then I guess good for you? But, nobody here asked about your sex life. You should probably keep that to yourself. And as for you not giving a shit about "grammar" (or spelling, or logic...) you've made that painfully clear. Me, a troll? Damn, you really are as stupid as your posts suggest...

@cantquitwontquit45 Fencing is a "pussy" sport only if you consider being covered in bruises (or giant welts if we're talking saber) to be for pussies.

didnt they have two master fencers swich out with them for this scene?

@BEoredJordon62 No. According to the DVD commentary, the only time doubles were used was when they twirled around the bar towards the end. If you notice, Cary Elwes (the Man in Black) switches hands in the middle of fighting at the 2:41 mark.

This was the first movie sword fight I remember seeing as a kid. After I saw this I judged all other sword fights using this as a standard. Any sword fight I saw had to be just as good or better.

I have a few things to say...
1. Yes, those are training swords, no, they are not rubber, yes, weapons of that type do bend fairly easily, but this is a GOOD thing for weapons of that type.
2. This is not real fencing. It is a send up of Hollywood swordplay; look up 'flynning' on TVtropes.org and you will understand. That said, small bits and pieces of it are quite good.

Fencing is an art, a dance of blades and this really captures it.
hylianrider 11 months ago 4
@hylianrider
Fencing is usually over in about 10 seconds and there's not a lot of dance. This scene is a pastiche. The dialogue shows the creators knew quite well what fencing is and isn't and just made a pastiche of the most typical Holywood scenes.

The swords are rubber. Look at how they bend so easily.
demeandr121 1 year ago
@demeandr121 Those swords aren't rubber. Training swords for fencing are very flexible so when you lunge at your opponent its bends on contact and not go thru them.

@crimsonlonely You can go to this place called the internet and grab a torrent, but that would be illegal/immoral/letting the terrorists win.
Other than that, check out amazon.com, they might have ti.
